So...I weigh every day, 3 times a day, just because I'm so scared of starvation mode affecting my losses. Yesterday, after working out, I noticed this HUGE lat muscle randomly pop out, so I decided to go for a 4th weigh-in. Lo and behold, if I didn't gain FIVE POUNDS OF MUSCLE in one day.

It's also my TOM. Is my scale broken, did I gain muscle weight, or am I bloated bc of my TOM?

  • Can you describe your flow in a little more detail so we can get a better idea?

    Well it's like really heavy the first day, like when a drunk frat boy blows chunks. Then after that it's just a slow trickle for like 5 days.

    is the cat male/female/a shim?
    It matters.

  • I've heard the CPT can affect your flow.

    You might want to eat more twinkies and see if it lightens up.

    Female. *GASP* Do you think her hormones are mixing with mine and causing my TOM to be worse?

    If I don't like twinkies, can I substitute a ho ho instead?

    I think you have worn your scales out....Weighing 3 times a day is not needed......Maybe you have a kinda OCD with your weighing..


    Give yourself a rest from weighing....Don't make it takeover your life......

    Oh, you betcha! Female female is not good.
    Try a male Siamese.

    Siamese tastes SO bitter. I prefer Somali. Is that ok?

    I say it's TOM. There's no way you gained 5 in one day, unless you are drinking straight from the cat!

    I am telling you, it is the evil google alien overlords trying to get us all fat and depressed so they can take over the world...........


    Also, It must be 3 male cats and 2 female so it doesnt mess up the hormones and make you all pissy..... or catty..... i suppose either adjective would be appropriate.

    But I have this huge lat muscle like overnight. Maybe I should stop lifting and bulking up.

    It's sad how people hate on the cat pee diet. They just haven't done the research. I have Youtube clips for anyone who's interested.

    I told you not to show anyone those! You said they were for our "own use."

    I went out and bought a talking scale at Sears. Got on it this morning and it said "One person at a time, please."

    You guys aren't giving me the answers I need. I think I will go cry and then call Dr. Oz.

  • OMG do you think Dr. Oz will talk about the Cat Pee diet on his next show?!

    I'm sorry Dr. Oz has already heard of you and will not be taking your calls. Also I am only drinking female cat pee but have had a hysterectomy so it really doesnt matter. My hormones are already screwed up
